Big Sis

Macie still couldn't really care less that there is a baby in the house.  She hardly ever seems to notice her.  Once in a great while she will look in her direction, but I think it's to scan and make sure that Emma isn't using any of her things. 
I decided that now is a really excellent time to screw up my first born.  While she's adjusting to having a little sister take over her world, I have decided to finally take away her before bedtime bottle.  Then yesterday and pretty much for the past week Macie has only taken a 45 minute nap.  She used to be unbearable around 10:00 and she would sleep from 10-12.  I decided today that I would keep her up until after lunch and hopefully she will nap longer.  She seems to be doing ok so far.  The bottle at bedtime wasn't even an issue (at least not that we can tell yet-it's only been 2 nights).  I am about to give her lunch and she's a bit tired but not having any meltdowns yet!!!  She's a pretty adaptable kid, but I was really being ballsy doing all this in a week that I am here by myself with no back up!!! 
Poor kid is really getting screwed. 
This is the closest she has come to "hanging out" with her kid sister!
